Glass / Art Glass Goblet ID Help
« Last post by mitko07 on May 28, 2025, 09:59:28 PM »
Hello Everybody!
I need some help with this goblet.
It is 23cm tall. It has applied shapes of colored glass and acid etched decorations.
The base reminds me of Orrefors somehow. Found in Sweden and likely Swedish.
No markings of any kind.
Anyone seen something like this?
Thanks in advance!
Dimi

Glass / Pair of Vaseline / Uranium Twisted Stem Posy Vases
« Last post by SNJ on May 28, 2025, 08:45:20 PM »
Wonder if someone would mind casting an eye over these vases, please. Quite delicate and with only a hint of green, but flouresce nicely under a UV light. They look to be in the style of Powell or Walsh Walsh... I'm happy to be educated!

British & Irish Glass / Re: Stuart Stratford Cocktail Shaker

….described as a cocktail shaker although those tend to have a pouring lip.
McConnell has a section on cocktail shakers in his decanter book. He shows several examples and only around half look to have a pouring lip.

Keith, could you confirm if this has a cut or fire polished rim? This has come up on another topic and would be useful to know if it has the ground pontil scar in addition to a cut rim. It looks to me like one of the high quality cut and polished rims, where they have chamfered the edges, but it’s not that clear from the photos. Thanks.

British & Irish Glass / Davidson Uranium Yellow Dish
« Last post by NevB on May 28, 2025, 09:17:50 AM »
An unusual 5" uranium yellow dish in the Blackberry Prunt/, 269/12 pattern, design registered on18/11/1908, No.533040. Davidson did not make much uranium glass at that time, I think it's probably 1920's but may be earlier.

Glass / Re: Art Deco green vase red 'flame' splotches - Schneider

Oh I love that shape as well!  Thanks SO much for spotting it and linking it here.  It's quite a distinctive shape. Same pontil finish as mine I think? i.e. Cracked off, ground/smoothed but not polished.
Maybe one day we'll pin this down.

Glass / Re: Victorian vase with engraved 'signature'
« Last post by flying free on May 27, 2025, 08:59:15 PM »
oops - 12.5cm is small (but not miniature).   I was actually thinking garniture for dressing table rather than mantlepiece so that might still be an idea?
Or just a small vase :)
